He returned my call very late, told me he would come out and give us an estimate. As far as I know, he never came out to measure. I left him several messages, but he never responded.

This was kind of a random project - removal of two very large mirrors in our bathroom. I had trouble finding someone willing to come out for a relatively small but difficult project, but when I called Jeff he responded very quickly and was willing to take it on. He was prompt, professional, and very reasonably priced. I have recommended him to friends already and will definitely be calling him for future projects!

Jeff far exceeded my expectations. Communication was good. While he had to reschedule, he called to ask if it would be okay and if it wasn't, he would come at the original time. I was able to be flexible so no big deal. I was impressed he called to ask and gave me the option. Not all other service providers do that. He gave excellent advice on what to buy so I was able to purchase the items he needed prior to his arrival. When I told him I wasn't able to get one thing he mentioned as there were too many to choose from, he took it in stride and went right out to get what he needed. He was prompt, polite and, explained things incredibly well. His price was well below what other handypeople had quoted me. I live alone and it can be daunting to have a stranger come into your home. He was polite, kind and respectful. I've already started creating a list for things for him to fix as I plan on having him come out again. Do yourself a favor and have Jeff help you out. You won't regret it!

Jeff is just fantastic. He's a problem-solver and is so good at everything he does. Bonus that he's such a nice guy and his rates are very reasonable. I would highly recommend him.
Description of Work: I've needed all kinds of repairs in preparation for seeing my parents' home. Primarily I've needed light fixtures and switches replaced, a bathroom fan and toilet installed, and a bit of landscaping work. But he's done all kinds of odds and ends everywhere in the house, and is always extremely accommodating with my never-ending requests.

Jeff is a knowledgable, skilled and honest contractor, who won't try to upsell you on stuff you don't really need, and will work with you to figure out the best solution for your needs. He is focused and efficient, and does quality work, all for a reasonable price. I will hire him again anytime I need a handyman and he has time.

He did all of the smaller projects I asked him to do and did them in a timely fashion. I paid him for those, then never heard from him again on the major work. I don't think he knew what he was doing, and had he just said that and perhaps tried to find someone who could I would have been fine with it. He just left and never followed up.
Description of Work: The main reason I hired him was to replace and/or fix interior trim in my home. I had other smaller projects like fixing screens, doors, etc. that I told him I would like him to do as well.

We plan to use him on an ongoing basis.
Description of Work: He does everything! He rewired a small lamp for us initially, but has also done assorted household projects at a rate of $40/hr. He does everything from electrical, to plumbing, to general fix-it services--and if he can't do it, he tells you up front. He is quick, efficient, dependable and trustworthy, and is a thoroughly nice guy.

The reason I am writing this is that on May 16, 2013 I emailed this person at jeffreylee4@aol.com with details of the work I would like to talk to him about. I never heard from him. I called and left a vm. Never heard from him. I thought, well, he must be good at what he does so maybe it just fell through the cracks. I called him again yesterday to give him the benefit of the doubt. Although not a lot of time has passed since that call I am not hopeful.
Description of Work: Nothing, he did not return my correspondence.

He charges $35/hour. He does good work. He was very fair with his quality. He tried to do another project for us and he couldn't quite do that he spent actually a couple of hours trying to figure out if he could do it and he didn't charge for any at that time because he didn't really can't do it so I thought he was very fair. He does a good job on the stuff that he works on. He is a busy guy and there are things that he can't hold off but other than that he did really a good job.
Description of Work: We used J. Lee Services for handyman service. Jeff Folkenson installed a garbage disposal and a ceiling fan and he fixed a ceiling fan that was on our garage and he put in a faucet on our kitchen sink.

Jeff was prompt, knowledgeable, and a great problem solver. He went with me to find a new garage door and managed to install it and refit the brass fittings while not interfering with the security system. The gate he built on our deck has finally made it safe for our dog! He's happy, too. Jeff fit the jobs to our very changeable spring weather and managed go get the painting in between rain storms. He did everything with a great degree of professionalism and left each work space as clean as when he started. I'm working on a new list and will definitely be calling him again.
Description of Work: Over 3 days, Jeff built a deck gate, replaced and reworked a garage access door (including picking up all materials and hauling away debris), painted various outdoor trim and balanced a ceiling fan in danger of falling out of the ceiling, as well as replacing weather stripping in a window and rebalancing a sliding screen door.

..Jeff was on time and we walked through the work I wanted done. He commented on each task as we went along and started to work immediately. He was very organized and efficient. He made one trip for supplies that were specifically needed for my projects, and communicated with me on options/changes to the supplies list. I would not hesitate to recommend Jeff to my closest friends. I will call Jeff for all future projects. I could not imagine a more positive experience!

It went very well. The yard was a real mess and needed lots of weeds pulled, shrubs trimmed, and the fence around the yard had lots of weeds growing under it. Jeff worked very quickly and got a lot done in the time he was there. He came back the next day to finish the job. He was quite a perfectionist about it all and asked several times about things I had not mentioned, but that needed work anyway. I liked what he did so much that he will continue the yard work on an on-going basis into this fall and then again starting next spring. He is also going to do a few odd jobs (handyman) around the outside, for instance, filling in a crack in our front porch.
Description of Work: Jeff came out and did a lot of weeding, trimming shrubs and edging in our yard.
